I am looking to swap QA (quality assurance) services with another party that maintains freely available Perl scripts. I am planning updates to three Perl scripts/systems that are listed on this site and would like another pair of eyes to see the scripts before I release them. One of the systems is ready to test now and I am hoping to have the other ones ready by the end of the month.

If you are willing to agree to QA one of my systems I will dedicate an equitable (and even flexible) time slot to doing QA on one of your systems first. I am able to test with Perl 5 under Windows '98, Windows NT, Linux, and possibly (at a pinch) Windows '95.

I am happy with the response so far but still have two more systems which could use some Quality Assurance. They are the FMutex multi-platform locking system and the "fetch_unanswered" system for finding usenet articles to which no reply has yet been posted.

An excerpt from a prior QA experience follows:
